I Wasn't Born Lucky

Xiao Li stared at the words on the small yellow book for a while.

To be honest, if these words were spoken by a stranger, or even someone he knew in reality, he would not even respond, even if he read it, he would probably block it.

But maybe Xiao Huang Ben has been with him for a long time, and there are really few such existences around him. Putting on this layer of filter, he can faintly see something in Xiao Huang Ben's words—confused?Even a little flustered and distressed.

There is a feeling of teenagers "I like him so much, but why doesn't he like me, and what can I do to make him like me?"

It's just that Xiao Huang is not a harmless teenager, but an indescribable evil existence.

In fact, everyone has more or less evil thoughts, but most people restrain them because of the three moral views of human beings, but Xiao Huang Ben does not have these constraints. All his patience and concessions are just because of love one person.

These two emotions are paired with the existence of Xiao Huangben itself, inexplicably making Xiao Li feel a little contradictory cuteness, the kind of frankness that won't be annoying.

He unconsciously twitched the corners of his lips, unscrewed the cap of the pen and wrote a line underneath: 【...Then bear with it, ah. 】

Xiao Huang Ben: [If one day, I can't help it, and I really treat you like I described, will you be angry? 】

Xiao Li tried to imagine such a scene: 【Yes. 】

Little Huang Ben: [Will you ignore me, or even hate me? 】

Xiao Li repeated the reading: [I will. 】

Xiao Huang Ben fell silent, as if imitating Xiao Li's appearance of ignoring him and still hating him in his mind, and then murmured a few lines: 【Don't ignore me. 】

[I can't stand you ignoring me, let alone hating. 】

Compared to his emotional instability, Xiao Li's answer was very simple: [Then hold back. 】

Prevent this kind of thing from happening at the root.

Little Huang Ben: […]

To put it simply, there is no conscience.

He sighed again, turned the pages of the book, and closed himself voluntarily.

Xiao Li laughed, and stretched out his hand to open the little yellow book, when he heard the door creak, a tall young figure came out from the door, holding a box of lunch in his hand.

Shen Mizhi put the rice on Xiao Li's table, dragged a chair from the side, and sat beside him.

The young man's facial features were handsome, his eyes fell on Xiao Li, his voice was seven points soft, three points helpless: "I don't know what you want to eat, so I brought some."

"Thanks," Xiao Li took apart the chopsticks and asked casually, "How about you?"

Shen Mizhi said briefly: "I have eaten."

Xiao Li gave a vague "hmm", and when he was about to finish the meal that Shen Mizhi had brought, the sky outside had completely darkened, and another night enveloped the Future Paradise.

The rest of the reincarnations returned to the dormitory one by one, their faces were not heavy, but at least there was no smile.

Xiao Li bit a piece of fried chicken wing, looked at Fu Guangbo and the others, and asked with his eyes:?

Fu Guangbo shrugged: "I didn't find out anything. Annie said that the office building has always been unmanned, and only the exhibition hall needs to be patrolled. I don't understand why we are suddenly arranged to patrol the office building."

"We asked about the same thing, anyway, we just don't know." Chen Jinghan and Zhang Kaixue said together.

Zheng Yi suddenly raised his hand with a strange expression: "I quietly asked the staff downstairs of Mr. Sun, saying that I was a new security guard, and asked if there were any rumors of haunted things here, and she told me a story. It sounds like a joke, but I'm afraid there may be some problems, so I still want to tell everyone after thinking about it."

"what story?"

"She said... There used to be a programmer here. He wrote the code overnight, but he was not appreciated by the leader. Not only that, he used C, and the enemy who prevented him from getting the year-end bonus was still whispering in his ear' JAVA is the best in the world!', so he was angry to death. Until now, sometimes in this office building late at night, there will be the sound of typing codes." Zheng Yi repeated truthfully.

After he finished telling the story, there was a moment of silence in the air.

Xiao Li: "...Pfft."

He couldn't help laughing out loud.

"It's a sudden change from the style of the exhibition hall." Fu Guangbo couldn't help complaining, "She thinks the question you asked is too funny, and she is teasing you, right?"

Zheng Yi couldn't hold back his face, he touched his nose embarrassingly: "I'm not afraid that there may be some trap in it, but I just want to tell Hercule, what if?"

Xiao Li has suppressed his smile, and he returned to his normal look: "Well, thank you, it's very useful."

At least at that moment, the air was filled with a happy atmosphere.

"Really?"

"Courtesy."

"........."

Zheng Yi turned his head silently, looked at the alarm clock hanging on the wall, and changed the subject directly: "It's time to go on patrol."

This time is not too late, but the Future Paradise has already been emptied. From tourists to staff, there is no one left, so the whole office building seems to be devoid of popularity at night.

If the exhibition halls at night are cemeteries, then this tall office building is more like a huge tombstone, square and square, standing in the dark.

Without lights, the office building cannot turn on the lights at night, and the reincarnated people can only use flashlights.

The entire office building is very tall, with a full twenty floors, but fortunately, Mr. Sun only asked them to patrol the floor where Mr. Sun was located, which is the No. 20th floor, the top floor.

The air was filled with the wet smell of mud, and the dark clouds in the sky seemed to be full of water droplets, but they did not fall. The weather was much worse than last night.

I don't know what will happen tonight, whether I can survive.

Fu Guangbo hugged his arms in pain, turned on the flashlight with his right hand, and walked inside.

This type of office building is generally equipped with elevators, and the stairs are rarely used by people, but in the dungeon world, elevators are a very dangerous thing-once the door is blocked by something, it is tantamount to death, because the elevator is an iron There is nowhere for people to hide in the box.

Therefore, in the world of reincarnators, it is customary to choose stairs.

Fu Guangbo immediately wanted to go up the stairs. He was the first to push open the door of the stairwell. Just as he turned his head to greet the others, he saw Xiao Li walk straight through the stairwell, came to the elevator, reached out and pressed the elevator up. button.

Fu Guangbo: "Don't take the stairs?"

Xiao Li said calmly: "The [-]th floor, you can climb up first."

When he was in Fenhua Hospital, he didn't even want to go down from the fifth floor, but now the twenty floors up are killing Xiao Li.

Fu Guangbo thought about it: "...F-forget it, I'll be with you."

It sounds more like an act of death for a person to walk twenty floors in the stairwell away from the boss.

With a sound of "Ding--", the elevator arrived.

Warm orange light leaked from the elevator, which was empty.

The elevator is like a warm home, using orange light to lure reincarnated people in, and then devours them with one mouth.

Xiao Li and Shen Mizhi walked in side by side, followed by Ye Zeqing and Zheng Yi, and Fu Guangbo and others also gritted their teeth and walked in resolutely after thinking about Hercule's performance in the exhibition hall.

Zhang Kaixue was the last one to enter the elevator, and then the elevator doors gradually closed.

However, just as the two doors were about to close, the elevator door seemed to have touched something, and pushed open to both sides, failing to close smoothly.

That feeling is like a "person" driving the elevator, putting his hands in the crack of the door to prevent the elevator from closing.

But everyone in the elevator opened their eyes wide, and they didn't see a single person at the door.

Is... a ghost?

Chen Jinghan involuntarily retreated to the back of the elevator, as if this would give him a sense of security.

No one came in.

After more than ten seconds, the elevator door was about to close slowly again, but it bounced open again in the middle. At the same time, at the end of the door opposite to the elevator, there seemed to be a faint shadow walking here.

"Shall we run away?" Fu Guangbo felt his scalp explode, "Here we are being caught."

"Run out now, there should be time... Hercule?"

Chen Jinghan and others walked to the door with Fu Guangbo to see Xiao Li, but Xiao Li had no intention of leaving.

The black shadow's movements seemed slow, but his walking speed was very fast. He arrived at the elevator entrance almost in the blink of an eye, standing outside the circle where the orange light could shine.

Finished!

Fu Guangbo thought to himself, this is a good time to be blocked by ghosts.

However, the black shadow has no intention of moving forward. I don't know if it is an illusion. It even seems a little hesitant.

The black shadow didn't move, and neither did Xiao Li. The elevator door lost its limit and continued to close after more than ten seconds.

This time Xiao Li stretched out his hand and pressed the "open outward" sign, forcing the elevator door to open again. At the same time, he stretched out his head: "Aren't you going to come in?"

The attitude was actually very friendly, as if seeing a colleague who was about to go upstairs together.

When Fu Guangbo heard this sentence, he didn't come up in one breath, and almost fell down on the spot.

Invite a ghost to ride an elevator with you? !

Because of Xiao Li's movements, he could roughly see the appearance of the black shadow. The shadow appeared to be a person, but his body was dripping with water, and his body smelled fishy. Hiding in the darkness, he couldn't see his face clearly. .

"Come in, which floor are you going to?" Xiao Li asked again, but this time the shadow on the opposite side did not answer.

Not only that, but it even takes a small step back for attitude.

Xiao Li invited several times to no avail, so he said "tsk" and said, "It's fine if you don't come up."

He also let go of his hand, allowing the elevator door to close inward.

Fu Guangbo's heart was beating nervously, he took a deep breath, and a sentence slipped out of his mouth: "It, why didn't it come up?!"

Xiao Li thought for a while, then said casually: "It should be because there are too many of us, so it doesn't feel safe."

Fu Guangbo:? ? ?

Hercule, it's not because of the crowd, it's just because of you, right? !

——The ghost will feel insecure when facing Hercule, and the strange knowledge has increased.
